Chat is absolutely amazing! He helped me create a professional, organized, and thorough business plan and cash flow projections. With these vital tools he helped me secure funding and launch my business. I am continuing to work with Chat as the business grows as his expertise has been vital for the growth of both myself and my business.

He is very creative and tells you how it is when it comes to ideas for your business. He is always willing to work out solution with you to any problems and is a great sounding board to figure out pinch points in a business. His extensive list of connections has been an amazing asset as he has helped find my company a great bookkeeper, insurance agent, hiring assistance, and more! Plus, he has put me in connection with some great clients even though we are in vastly different fields he was able to secure connections I would have never thought of.

I had the pleasure of working with Chat and I can’t recommend him enough. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional, and he helped me collect all the relevant data I needed by working closely with the seller and doing his own in-depth research to help me make an informed decision on whether I should buy my first brick and mortar business.

He was always available to answer my questions and provide guidance, and he really went above and beyond to ensure I made the right decision. I would highly recommend Chat to anyone looking for not only a top-notch business consultant, but a genuinely nice person. Chat I look forward to working with you as we have discussed on the next phase as I now move to grow and scale my new business. Thanks again for your help!”

Chat has been an amazing coach while helping us set up our start-up small business. I could not recommend him any higher, we wouldn’t be even close to where we are today without Chat’s help. He has exceeded all of our expectation and we have decided to keep him on our payroll indefinitely, moving forward with our business.

I have benefitted tremendously from working with Chat. As a working mom and small business owner, having the support of a life/business coach and the space to think things through more fully has helped me to steer both my life and my businesses in positive directions. Chat’s expertise from the business world has been invaluable, and his approach to coaching allowed me to be open to new ideas, to shift gears, and to make hard decisions when needed. Throughout my time with Chat, I have felt supported, encouraged, and respected, all while also receiving the feedback I needed about what was and was not working well within my business.

In my time working with Chat, he’s given me so much valuable information to work on and put into action. I’ve recently landed a few projects that will keep me busy for several months, and the selling-based-on-value strategy and the refined focus on what my business actually offers, that Chat shared with me, were instrumental in getting these projects. I would definitely recommend him to any business wanting to grow both their understanding of where to focus energy and grow their profits.

As a small business owner, it’s easy to get busy on daily tasks and miss out on the big picture. Busy is not necessarily productive! Chat helped me expand and utilize my resources to a few areas that I have overlooked. This helped me grow tremendously and learn how to dedicate some time to observe and keep track of my growth constantly. His friendly attitude and positive energy goes beyond your business; it affects your life. We don’t get a do-over in certain things, so do yourself a favor and hire a professional the first time around!
